    I'm trying to get XP x64 installed but I'm stuck on a few drivers. There were a few who posted that they successfully installed x64 and all the drivers. Please help.

    I can't seem to get the intel matrix drivers, nvidia video, BCM Bluetooth drivers. I downloaded the latest intel chipset drivers from intel and installed them but when i try to install the latest matrix drivers for video drivers, I get a "system does not meet requirements" error.

    If there aren't any XP x64 drivers, are there all the drivers for Vista x64?

    Please, let's start assembling a XP x64 driver bank/directory here.

    You've probably have tried this, but if not this thread mentions the Vista 64 drivers... you might try the bluetooth driver.

    I'm about to install XP x64 because Vista is even less acceptable than I thought it would be. It's slow and crashy. I like how fast it can wake up (when it works) and I love my fingerprint scanner, but not enough.

    I'm eagerly awaiting on my M1330 laptop to arrive ; (

    Anyhow i'm extremly happy with XP to date & dont feel the need to upgrade to Vista just to fill microsofts boots once again.

    I have decided i will wipe the Vista that it comes with & install XP X64.
    My research lead me to this most helpful webpage:

    Installing Windows XP 64 on the Dell m1330

    This article gives instructions & covers all required drivers but for the touchstrip which can be downloaded directly from UPEK's website:

    http://www.upek.com/support/downloads/drivers/windows.asp


    If someone manages to follow theses instructions before i get my hands on my laptop please update us all with feedback on how it went.


    Thanks
